The Ravell'd Sleeve
The Ravell'd Sleeve
In 2002, Catherine Lowe published the first of four journals exploring and explicating ‘couture knitting’—a method that she has developed over more than 20 years. Catherine, in The Ravell’d Sleeve: The Journal of the Couture Knitting Workshop, revises and brings together in a single volume her in-depth examinations of her practices and techniques.
As a designer with the spirit of a dressmaker, Catherine Lowe applies her discerning eye and couture method to every detail of a hand-knit. From fabric to construction to finishing, everything is exquisitely wrought. The Ravell’d Sleeve, intensive and meticulous, is chock-full of precise, pedagogical content. If you make use of this book, you will be a better knitter.
